I’m happy to announce that we’ve partnered with PBS to bring you Sewing With Nancy on the PBS app, available for Apple phones and tablets, Xbox 360, Apple TV, Amazon Fire TV, and Roku! The app is free; all you need is an Internet connection/Wi-Fi to watch the latest episodes. The videos have been specially built for the screen you’re watching on; we hope you think they look terrific.

I just enjoyed watching the episode on making things from old jeans. Would like to purchase the book, if there is one.

Thanks for what you do

I’m android too. But, I want to tell you how much I enjoy the body of your work.

Angel MesserDecember 3, 2016

Yes, I’m android too. But, at least, I can watch on Saturdays, at 9 am, and record it if I decide to sleep in. Also, want to say that I thoroughly enjoy your TV shows and blog since I have just gotten back to sewing, (retired after 32 years). Have bought your book, ” Easiest Way to Sew”, because I feel like I am learning all over again. Thank you for all your exceptional body of work. Will stay with you.

Kina WilliamsJune 1, 2016

You’re awesome. I’ve been watching and learning from you for years. People including me truly admire you, thanks for sharing. It’s also nice too that others are invited on your show to share their talents. From all of us watching, bless your heart and thank you.

I love the idea of a PBS app to watch your videos….BUT it took me 30 minutes to read through all the help to change the PBS app so I could watch Wisconsin Public TV on the app. It is NOT intuitive. Nor is it easy to figure out what to do! Sewing s soooooo much easier.

I am surprised that you created an app for the Iphone before creating an app for the Android. Us Android users do not pay astronomical prices for phones so we have more money to buy Nancy’s Notions. Seems like a win-win situation.

When trying to download the app for iPhone a pane comes up that says not avsilable in this country yet.
anyone else have this problem ??
How do u work around this or fix the problem ??

SabrinaOctober 15, 2015

I am having the same issue stating App is not available in USA.

TJ HeinJuly 16, 2015

Hi Nancy, should we write to PBS asking for help with an app for our android device? I saw on other comments you stated that they are working on one. I love all of your programs I have built up my confidence and learned so much. I really enjoy the absolute easiest serious. Thanks again TJ

EllieMay 6, 2015

As always apple not android wondering why as android is the VAST majority. I will either do without our wait, per usual, as I still believe android is the better unit. ..praying for you Nancy!

The review for the App dated Aug. 14 says it still crashes soI did not download although that was originally my intent.

Zina RisleyJuly 6, 2014

We will wait for an Android application to be developed. Please remember your Android audience is larger than the Apple IOS and growing. Thank you for over 30 years of dedication to your loyal followers. We enjoy every educational and tip opportunity that you bring to us!

Sandra ChavezJune 24, 2014

Please, please – make an app for my android as well. Thank you.

LindaJune 12, 2014

When I followed your instructions for my iPhone, I pressed ‘more’ like you said. However, the choices given to me were Donate; Shop: PBS.org: Parents: Teachers: KIDS, not Settings. Any help would be much appreciated. Linda

Denise ZemanJune 12, 2014

Android please!!!

Sonja EdgingtonJune 6, 2014

thanks, Nancy. My station no longer shows your programs and I have really missed your shows. Now I can catch up on my Ipad!!!

Myra LemsonJune 5, 2014

Where or when can I get the app for my Surface or Nokia Windows Phone?

EVaMay 24, 2014

Android please

WendyFebruary 6, 2014

Another vote for Android!

Sharon SmithJanuary 28, 2014

I’m another android user who is eagerly awaiting the development of an app for android tablets. Hope it won’t be long.

SandyDecember 16, 2013

Yea! I am so excited to have this app. THANK YOU

shula kantorOctober 10, 2013

Hi Nancy…where is an app for android

Nancy ZiemanOctober 11, 2013

Hi Shula,
Unfortunately, PBS has not developed an app for androids as of yet. I’ll let you know when this happens. Thanks for your patience. NZ

Kathy GrayOctober 10, 2013

thanks sew much for all the extras that you do! I look forward all the new ways to improve my sewing… love it!!

PatAugust 1, 2013

I vote for an android app too. I would love to be able to watch it on the go, but don’t have an iPhone or iPad.

EveMay 23, 2013

Here’s a trick for Kindle users. I couldn’t get the show off the app. But if you go to the web and type in Nancyzieman.com up will come the website and just click on “Watch Online” all the episodes come up. Hope that helps.

EveMay 23, 2013

For my Iphone I went to the app store and searched PBS (it was the first PBS to come up (there are several) I think it said PBS entertainment. From there I went to Programs. Scroll down until you see Sewing with Nancy. Voila, it was there. Thank you so much Nancy. In my south Jersey/Philadelphia area the show came on Channel 257 YARTS. Now it has disappeared. Why is this? I thought show was on hiatus. If wasn’t for your emails we would have never known we can see it on our electronic devices. Thank you again!!

BonnieJanuary 10, 2013

I buy a lot of your products and love them. I see you have an app for an iPad. Will you ever have one that is good in Canada?
Thanks
Bonnie

Just loaded the app for my new IPad. Thanks so much for the walk through for this new IPad user.

JillJanuary 3, 2013

Thank you so much for sharing all of this wonderful information on embroidering/sewing. The PBS app for my ipad will be so handy ~ I can watch episodes multiple times until a particular technique sinks in. (I own a Bernina Artista 730 w/digitizing software and have become completely overwhelmed with learning to sew.) Now I feel like I have my own personal teacher as close as my ipad. I’m excited about learning to sew again!

Linda WardJuly 17, 2012

I’m so excited to try these adorable doll clothes! I, too learned to sew making doll clothes for my Shirley Temple doll, and made doll clothes for my daughter’s dolls, too. However, the techniques and fashion of these clothes are in a different league!

This is so awesome – thanks for letting us learn over and over where ever we are. It will come in handy too when you’re at your machine and trying to remember what you showed us and are not hear a DVR/Television!

RaynaMay 29, 2012

I eagerly await this for Android phones! Local PBS doesn’t air the show at a time I can watch.

I’d also love to buy the books on Kindle or Zinio.

Christine MartinsonMay 24, 2012

Does this work with the Kindle Fire??

CynthiaMarch 22, 2012

I love the app but wish the iPad would have true iPad performance to use the large screen without having to press the 2x, which makes it a little blurry. I was surprised because I clicked where it said for iPad users to click to download it,

Seems odd that we do get Sewing With Nancy on our local PBS stations but we don’t list it. I tried my daughters’ zipcodes and it isn’t listed with their local PBS station programs either. I only find it using the 54481 for the Wisconsin PBS, which I believe is Nancy’s local PBS.

Love being able to see thwm in my iPad. Will free DVT space because I have been recording them! This show is wonderful!

There is a true iPad app for PBS. The problem is that the link that’s labeled for iPad users actually goes to the iPod one. Try searching in the app store.

YoyaFebruary 15, 2012

I just found you and so glad I did! Love watching your tips!

Sherrie LillyJanuary 24, 2012

Also an Android user. How about an android app for the rest of us. Thanks

EileenJanuary 21, 2012

How can I get it for my Blackberry!

EllenBJanuary 20, 2012

Works great on my iPhone and very easy to install. Now the problem is finding time to follow through on all the creative ideas. Certainly no time to be bored!

Tracy DavisJanuary 20, 2012

I got very excited about this – but then itunes spoilt my day. It’s only available in the US. Hopefully one day your British fans will get to see too.

Nancy ZiemanJanuary 20, 2012

Yes, you’re right, only the US has the first rights to the program. Maybe it will change! Sorry.

ArleneJanuary 19, 2012

Sure wish it was available for the Android

Anita BüttnerJanuary 13, 2012

It does not work heer in Germany. Rallye sad.

Nancy ZiemanJanuary 13, 2012

Anita,
PBS in the United States has exclusive rights to the program for the first two years. As you have experienced, the app does not work outside the US.

elizabethdxJanuary 9, 2012

Thank you so much, Nancy! I just installed it on my iPad and am thrilled.

PatriotJanuary 8, 2012

I hate to ask stupid questions, but where do I get eh app? Went to the app store and my search shows they don’t have it. What am I doing wrong, please?

Nancy ZiemanJanuary 9, 2012

Please follow the instructions within the blog on how to download the app. Since we’re still in the trial stage, there are a few more steps than usual. But, I am sure if you follow the numbered steps, you’ll be set to watch Sewing With Nancy on an iPad, iPod Touch, or iPhone.

LindaJanuary 7, 2012

This is terrific! I cannot wait to watch on my iPad!

PeggyJanuary 7, 2012

I just watched an episode on my iPad and it worked perfectly. Thank you for making it possible. This app will come in handy for long airplane flights!
